Title:
NOPSI 952
Description:
New Orleans Public Service
CANAL LINE
car 952 was outbound in the 1200-block of Canal Street. Visible above the car, between the Krauss Department Store on the left and the Hotel La Salle on the right, was a crane that was dismantling the former Southern Railway station which had been on the median of North Basin Street. The 952 was in service until the original
CANAL
car line was discontinued in 1964, and was then sold to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum. It was subsequently resold to the Chattanooga Choo Choo Hotel, where it was used for several years, and returned to New Orleans in March 1990. Here, it was rebuilt, renumbered 456 and used on the new
RIVERFRONT
line until 1997, then it was restored as NOPSI 952 and sent to the San Francisco Municipal Railway in 1998 in exchange for cable car no. 59.
